Snoskred - Life in the Country

During the week I spotted this incredible shot in my sidebar from airliners.net - all I can say is WOW. Look at the people ducking under the plane! The wake turbulence from a plane that big flying over your head that low.. it must have been an incredible experience.

Here’s another shot taken just seconds later from a different angle, see all the sand getting kicked up from the wake turbulence? That’s one heck of a way to exfoliate.

Funny Search Terms This Week -

Just when I thought I had seen all the sexual fetishes that existed on the internet, a new search term came to me as a surprise this week. I must say I got a good laugh out of this one, though the mental image I can do without..

As you can probably tell, I have pre-blogged a lot of this. I’ll be busy packing up the house but I’m not going to leave my loyal readers without something to read.
